Things Ended Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLEngulfed by fear and suspicion | A |
mind agitated eyes alarmed | B |
we try desperately to invent ways out | C |
plan how to avoid | D |
the obvious danger that threatens us so terribly | E |
Yet we're mistaken that's not the danger ahead | F |
the news was wrong | G |
or we didn't hear it or didn't get it right | H |
Another disaster one we never imagined | I |
suddenly violently descends upon us | J |
and finding us unprepared there's no time now | K |
sweeps us away | L |
